Renewing Workers’ Education - A Radical Vision (Paperback)

Renewing workers’ education focuses on educational forms created by workers for workers. It extends beyond trade unions to include the range of educational initiatives aimed at the working class more generally, including working class women, casual and informal sector workers, migrant workers, and workers’ political parties. This book contributes to filling the gap in the South African literature on workers’ education and documents the more recent history of workers’ education as well as current practices and perspectives, including some international experiences. It explores conceptual tools that may assist in reflecting on and theorising the practice of workers’ education and analyses current challenges. This essential book also seeks to inform future policy and practices on workers’ education and is key for those who wish to reinvigorate and contribute to building an alternative future for workers’ education.
